Some online books to read...
Read Cory Doctorow's awesome Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom and Roger Williams' equally awesome The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect. These are two truly great books.
Currently I'm taking a Network+ class sponsored by my employer. I'm finding it pretty easy so I figure I'll take the exam.
Also, I'm starting to explore the possibility of implementing Unobtainium NOS. Stay tuned.
